I have invented a new game console peripheral product that allows two people playing a multiplayer game to use the full screen at the same time without seeing each others screen.
It will be available for sale soon. If you are interested you can see more details at :

Isn't the picture going to look very stretched?

And wouldn't it be better if you made some sort of box to plug the TV in and out, and somehow use this instead of a PC? It would cost more, but that current set-up would confuse a lot of people, and just doesn't seem practical.

This device is pretty great, except for the LARGE box you have to set onthe floor with your PS2. As my room is pretty much a mess and my ps1 and ps2 take up the room. This is a no-no. And anyways. the split screen doesn't annoy me that much. :)

amazing but would the glasses fit on your head properly because it would be silly if they didnt, anyways i cant be bothered to play multiplayered racing games but would it also work for First person shooters?

seems very cool... but one or two questions about it.

i think someone tryed something like this but as the tv framerate is too fast for the eyes to pick up flickering and register to the brain, instead subconciously they do, and dont register it to the brain and give headaches and stuff, nothing serious, but headaches are quite sore after a while.or something like that

another thing, why are you charging so high when most of us are quite content with split screen?aand i see u put ur prices in dollars, would that add a lot more on the price for posting and packaging?

and i see you have not included dreamcast in your list of compatible consoles, is this because it failed miserably? :P

im not trying to be negative because it seems a very cool idea, and maybe you have done summat to the frame rate so headaches are not induces, but, be careful of crazy people that sue for little things like headaches and stuff cos u could be in a lot of trouble
